Travellers who set up shop in a staff car park at council offices have been given 24 hours to leave.

Three caravans moved onto the land near Taunton Deane Borough Council's offices at Flook House on Tuesday (September 26).

A spokeswoman for the council said: "We have taken the first step in trying to regain possession of its land at the Belvedere Road car park by serving a notice giving the travellers an initial 24 hours to vacate as they are occupying the land without licence or consent.
